I don't think you would be able to tell from bones if an animal were human. There is that little thing called a soul.
He!!, if you found Islamic bones, you might think THEY were human...

Palaeontologists excavating a dump outside Barcelona have found . . . dumpster-diving man, the evolutionary fore-runner of the homeless.
To: dead
Though tests show the skull was from a male, fossilized impressions of a tight fitting skirt were apparent on nearby skeletal remains. In light of recent discoveries of cave paintings depicting rainbow colored flags, this specimen has been dubbed The Missing Kink.

Why is it that every time someone finds a skull and dates it, they automatically think they know from the estimated age weather it is some link in some genus (or between them), rather than a dead end branch (which is much more likely) or incidental offshoot?
